I am not sure where my comment fits within your blog, but as a former student of yours who recently moved to Washington, D.C., I wonder what you think of senate candidate Ted Cruz’ (R-Texas) comments at Politico’s RNC breakfast briefing from August 30. Among other topics, Cruz made a statement that I believe I have heard you make in the past. He said that the best method of campaign finance reform is removing all contribution limits and demanding immediate disclosure. Until now, I had never heard a politician publicly advocate removing donation limits. I find Cruz’ idea interesting and would appreciate your input.

Best,
Addi

Not sure if that means anything, but by and large I think it was a positive for the Romney campaign.

He has no limits, and thus, no one is limited when talking about him or his alleged golf game.
